To make beagle as useful as possible it needs to be linked against some packages in extras. 1 is gnumetric to index spreadsheets 2 is wv to index word documents http://www.beagle-project.org/Optional_prerequisites ok looks like gnumetric is run time only so it should work as --enable-ssindex is enabled in gnumetric however end users may complain that indexing is not happening if they dont install gnumetric themselves. so wv would need to be added to core and to give users best experience gnumetric would need adding back so beagle could require it. a couple of things that bother me about beagle. and i could be wrong here. 1. there seems to be no way to index OpenDocument files. this is a big downer for me as i use them much more often than Word or excel. 2. it wants to link against older packages wv1 not wv2 sqlite2 not sqlite3 Dennis
